Changes in DA system after restraint stress and MPTP treatment. (a) Level of DA and its metabolite DOPAC in striatal homogenates of the four groups of C57BL/6 mice receiving vehicle (CTR, n=10); MPTP (n=12); MPTP+RI (n=9); and RI (n=9) (*P<0.05). (b) Representative western blot analysis of striatal levels of DA receptors D1DR and D2DR in the same groups of mice and densitometric analyses of their immunoreactivities (*P<0.05). Results are mean ±s.e.m. DA, dopamine; DOPAC, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid; MPTP, 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine; RI, restraint/isolation. **P<0.001.
